Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com noted the following in a post via Twitter/X…
“I am beyond saddened to pass along the following news on Vladimir Abouzeide, subject of WWE documentary Superfan: The Story of Vladimir and the company’s only officially recognized superfan. As we have previously, Vlad has been battling Parkinson’s Disease over the last several years. One of the by-products of the disease is terrible balance issues. This past week, Vlad was walking with his sister when he suddenly fell, striking his head on the concrete. He suffered a major concussion and there was concern about bleeding on the brain, but we are told that he is believed to be out of imminent danger when it came to the bleeding.
Vlad will, however, remain hospitalized in NYC for some time to come. There is no timetable for his release as I write this.
Vlad’s sister gave me permission to pass along the word so that she can ask everyone to please keep him in your thoughts and prayers as he recovers. Vladimir has been one of my dearest, closest friends for decades. I ask that everyone please send him the best wishes you can.”
